Perhaps the most iconic in Sendai, this statue stands between massive rows of zelkova trees which are lit up in celebration of December’s Starlight Pageant on Jozenji Avenue.

Finally, we ended up at Nishi (West) Park. Lying along the Hirosei River, the park is home to lots of events and festivals throughout the year. The leaves were in full colour. We avoided the bum singing all alone in the bushes and rode around the park. Nishi Park serves as a natural western boundry of downtown Sendai; beyond this are bridges and highways leading to universities and suburbs.
